Riassunto

Excerpt from An Example of Plain Catechising, Upon the Assembly's Shorter Catechism: Humbly Offered as an Help for Instructing the Young and Ignorant in the Knowledge of the Principles and Duties of the Christian Religion, With the Grounds Thereof, and That in a Very Comprehensive Manner

There was a very wild attempt lately made by an anonymous author to alter our Shorter Catechism, which was printed at Lon don in the year 1735, under the title of The Assembly's Shorter Catechism Revised. But the alterations therein made, being visibly designed to favor various errors now spread among us, severals of the Judicatories of this church judged themselves bound to give warning against the poison of it. Besides, there were Remarks made upon it by a very judicious author at London, (to whom we stand much obliged) which have been dispersed both there and here as an antidote against it.
